Happy Friday, crafty friends! 🎨✨ It’s been a bit quiet around here as I’ve been busy kitting for an upcoming class and working ahead before we spend 10 days in Texas starting next Thursday. But I wanted to pop in and share a super simple birthday card that beautifully blends BetterPress Letterpress and Glimmer hot foiling—two techniques that create stunning visuals and highlight the versatility of press plates.
For this project, I used the Colorful Bold Splatters BetterPress set from Spellbinders—currently 50% off in the Pre-Summer sale! The combination of pastel splashes and dazzling gold foil accents makes for a vibrant and eye-catching design.
Let’s dive into the creative process behind this colorful creation!
Card size:Â A2 - 4.25 x 5.5 (inches) - click on the images above to see them larger.

Easy step by step instruction:
This set includes a handy registration guide, which made the BetterPress portion a breeze. For the hot foiling, I simply eye-balled the plate placement—and it worked beautifully! ✨ The best part? This card came together in under 30 minutes, but recipients will think you spent hours crafting it.
